Abstract
The present disclosure relates generally to utilizing paid time off. In one example, the systems and methods described herein may provide an infrastructure to repurpose paid time off into other uses, such as cash, travel, bill payments, and the like.
Claims21
A method comprising:
- obtaining a request to repurpose an amount of a paid time off benefit, wherein the request corresponds to a requesting employee associated with an employer workforce;
- presenting an option for donating the amount of the paid time off benefit to a paid time off pool, wherein the option is generated using information associated with the requesting employee as input to a machine learning algorithm, and wherein the machine learning algorithm is trained using historical selections from options generated using employer workforce information;
- receiving a selection of the option for donating the amount of the paid time off benefit to the paid time off benefit pool;
- updating an employer system to indicate a new amount of the paid time off benefit available to the requesting employee and to add the amount of the paid time off benefit to the paid time off benefit pool;
- updating the machine learning algorithm, wherein the machine learning algorithm is updated using the donation request and the historical selections from the options to generate an updated machine learning algorithm;
- and
- generating one or more recommendations for benefits extendable to the employer workforce for improving workforce quality of life, wherein the one or more recommendations are generated by the updated machine learning algorithm using the donation request and the historical selections.
4 more elements
A system, including:
- one or more processors;
- and
- memory including instructions that, as a result of being executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to:
- obtain a request to repurpose an amount of a paid time off benefit, wherein the request corresponds to requesting employee associated with an employer workforce;
- present an option for donating the amount of the paid time off benefit to a paid time off pool, wherein the option is generated using information associated with the requesting employee as input to a machine learning algorithm, and wherein the machine learning algorithm is trained using historical selections from options generated using employer workforce information;
- receive a selection of the option for donating the amount of the paid time off benefit to the paid time off benefit pool;
- update an employer system to indicate a new amount of the paid time off benefit available to the requesting employee and to add the amount of the paid time off benefit to the paid time off benefit pool;
- update the machine learning algorithm, wherein the machine learning algorithm is updated using the donation request and the historical selections from the options to generate an updated machine learning algorithm;
- and
- generate one or more recommendations for benefits extendable to the employer workforce for improving workforce quality of life, wherein the one or more recommendations are generated by the updated machine learning algorithm using the donation request and the historical selections.

A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium storing thereon executable instructions that, as a result of being executed by one or more processors of a computer system, cause the computer system to:
- obtain a request to repurpose an amount of a paid time off benefit, wherein the request corresponds to requesting employee associated with an employer workforce;
- present an option for donating the amount of the paid time off benefit to a paid time off pool, wherein the option is generated using information associated with the requesting employee as input to a machine learning algorithm, and wherein the machine learning algorithm is trained using historical selections from options generated using employer workforce information;
- receive a selection of the option for donating the amount of the paid time off benefit to the paid time off benefit pool;
- update an employer system to indicate a new amount of the paid time off benefit available to the requesting employee and to add the amount of the paid time off benefit to the paid time off benefit pool;
- update the machine learning algorithm, wherein the machine learning algorithm is updated using the donation request and the historical selections from the options to generate an updated machine learning algorithm;
- and
- generate one or more recommendations for benefits extendable to the employer workforce for improving workforce quality of life, wherein the one or more recommendations are generated by the updated machine learning algorithm using the donation request and the historical selections.
